Suppose that a package courier service promises to deliver to customers at 10:00 am on the morning after pickup. More than 2 hours from the promised delivery time is unacceptable to customers. Due to compensation that the company gives customers for not meeting the promised delivery target, the penalty is $13. How much variation should be allowed in the delivery service? Given : Op Cost = 21 -1.7D and Total Cost = 21 - 1.7D + 3.25D^2
